than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to 

the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not 

plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less 

than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor. 

Your tool is double insulated  for additional protection 

against a possible electrical insulation failure within the tool. 

Always remove the plug from the mains socket before 

making any adjustments or maintenance, including 

changing the blade.

  Ensure that the lighting is adequate.

  Do not use the saw unless the guards are in place

  Keep the shoe flat on the work piece.

  Do not put pressure on the saw, such that it slows the 

motor down. Allow the saw blade to cut without pressure. 

You will get better results and you will be taking better 

care of your tool.

  Keep the area free of tripping hazards.

  Do not let anyone under 18 years operate this jigsaw.

  Only use blades in good condition.

  Before cutting, check that there is sufficient clearance for 

the blade under the work piece.

  Do not touch the blade after operation. It will be very hot.

  Keep your hands away from under the work piece.

  Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste 

close by the blade.

  Rags, cloths, cord, string and the like should never be left 

around the work area.

  Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the work piece and remove all 

nails and other foreign objects before beginning sawing.

  Support the work properly.

  Never reach over the blade to remove waste or off cuts.

  Do not attempt to free a jammed blade before first 

switching off the machine.

  If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete 

the process and switch off before looking up.

  Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are 

properly tightened.

  Do not store materials or equipment above a machine in 

such a way that they could fall into it.

  Always hold the saw on parts that are insulated. If you 

accidentally cut into hidden wiring or the saw’s own cable, 

the metal parts of the saw will become ‘live’.

  Do not secure the jigsaw upside down in a vice or work 

bench and use it as a saw bench. This can lead to 

serious injury.

  When using the jigsaw, use safety equipment including 

safety goggles or shield, ear defenders, dust mask and 

protective clothing including safety gloves.

Accessories

The SPJ2HM is supplied in a storage case with the 

following accessories:

  5 x Wood cutting blades

  Parallel guide

  Dust extraction adaptor

  Anti splintering insert

  Hex key

Unpacking

Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely 

that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is missing. 

If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the 

parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. 

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.

Assembly

The GMC jigsaw is packed, fully assembled except  

for the blade.
